Yeah, Gitlab take down the repo without notice. Github even gave the warning letter first before take down the repo

If it's a DMCA takedown notice, both GitHub and GitLab are required to take it down. There is no real agency on the part of the hosting site.

It's up to the uploader to counterclaim and enable the host to make the content accessible again.

We can see a lot from Suyu cases that also on Gitlab it just DMCAd without warning to the maintainer compared to uyouplus and saikou that hosted on Github with proper warning message. So, users have a brief time to fork it or download the latest version. So, Github is much more humane.

I think you're confused. There is no warning letter, that's just the takedown notice sent at the same time as the takedown.
