Microsoft is not your friend. GitHub is owned by thah US-based, publicly-traded, for-profit megacorporation & will do the bidding of the other megacorporate wishes like taking down youtube-dl for the music industry and so on. Get your projects & communities on another platform.
I hope they, at the very least, start something like an I2P website or some other presumably safer alternative than a normal webpage if they go after their site.
Even if they do, it's not that easy to shut down a Tor website. This usually only happens when someone runs a Darknet marketplace and sells drugs. Never heard of a onion site shutdown because of DMCA.

What other plattform would you suggest?

Codeberg is one option. I think they run Forgejo.

That's why Suyu runs their own instance of @Forgejo@floss.social

That’s when Nintendo reaches out to CloudFlare instead.

Not that hard to find another way to host the website.

They already have an onion site: http://suyudev2qxj5x7mroamgwf4hqunz4pups27z2kl77x4ioqhh5yhpshad.onion/

Hell yeah! Good on them. Let's hope Sintendo doesn't find out about this.

When will they learn that their actions are useless on open source?

When we stop hosting projects on places where their actions have an effect. Its small, but there is an effect.

Btw Suyu hosts a full backup of Yuzu (and other stuff like Ryujinx or Dolphin in case it gets taken down at some point) on their Forgejo instance
It's also available via Tor as an onion site: http://suyudev2qxj5x7mroamgwf4hqunz4pups27z2kl77x4ioqhh5yhpshad.onion/
