We had a problem with users bumping their topics when editing them
It’s not really a problem when there’s just a couple of posts, but if some of their links died and they have to update a dozen it becomes spammy
Same problem with mods changing tags (without using mass-tagging)
So with some (a lot) help from AI and some (a lot) rewrites I made a plugin to fix that

How does this plugin interact with the recent changes in core that prevent bumping of topics when the last post is edited?
The use cases you describe with users bumping on edit and staff bumping when they tag topics seem to be covered by the changes in core. The only case I know that still bumps the topic is if the first post is a wiki which was added as an exception in FEATURE: Bump wiki topics when OP is edited by martin-brennan · Pull Request #35137 · discourse/discourse · GitHub.
So, can I now use your plugin to enable bumping topics in a category on edit?

Hmm, it was made like a half year ago, just forgot about it since as we didn’t add it to our Discource
Will check
