Edgerunner
Edgerunner restores the old block-edge behavior, in which effects from the block under a player's feet can apply when the player stands at a block edge.
What it does
Since snapshot 23w18a, the game applies effects such as those from soul sand, magma, slime, honey and ice based on the block the player actually stands on, which removed edge effects that had existed for over ten years. Edgerunner brings that earlier behavior back, so a player standing partly over the edge of a block again receives the effect of the block directly below the feet.
The change is controlled by a gamerule, which can be set in game with commands, so a server owner can keep the restored behavior on or leave it off. The mod runs on the server only, so players join without installing anything. It requires Fabric API and is published for Fabric and Quilt across eight release versions, 1.20 – 1.21, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the code is open source.

Effects from the block below the feet apply again when a player stands at a block edge, as before the change tracked in MC-1133.
Gamerule control
A gamerule switches the behavior, so the restored effect can be enabled or disabled without editing files.

What the author says
Edgerunner brings back the feature of receiving effects according to the block right below the player's feet instead of the actual block the player is standing on, which was reported in MC-1133 and fixed in 23w18a. Basically, in 23w18a and above, you can't eliminate the effects provided by soul sand, magma blocks…
