looks like someone stole their mod so they took it down - see this page:

Mod author got burned by idiots, so he removed his stuff. That's what happens sometimes. You just gotta live with it, or create your own mod. It's a shame stupid people have to ruin good things for everyone.

This.
All I did was make a really simple mod for personal use, decided to make it public because I thought people would find it useful. They did. I guess some people liked it too much because I received a handful of unwanted friend invites due to this mod.
But over time there was more people that wanted me to make 'compatibility patches' for god knows how many mods or ask me why the mod affects an entire texture pack.
I'm just a smoothbrain that wanted to try out to retexture some tiles which in the end resulted in the moodle mod, not a coding god.
As for the mod being stolen, it wasn't on the Workshop in fact but in one of the few 3rd party websites that the mod was uploaded to. Normally it'd be fine, I understand not everyone can afford the game but still wants to play with Workshop mods.
But one of them allowed somebody to gain money from downloads like how url shorteners give someone money for visitors.
It seems like a niche website but it is still kind of hurtful to know that someone could be making money off of something you've made and there isn't really anything you can do about it.
Deciding to make my personal mods public for a game I love was a mistake once again.

To also add up to Drizzt's mod suggestion, here is a preset for the mod he has linked.

I created a similar mod (mostly for myself, also no files taken from Moodle Fractions mod)
