I feel free !
Thanks to Power Delete Suite.
I actually run cupoftea.social on mastodon so I was already very familiar with the fediverse. The more platforms for it the better.

How will these tools (power delete, shreddit, redact.dev etc) behave after July 1st? Will users still be able to nuke their content or do they need to hurry tfu before the fatidic date?

Not sure about the others, but Power Delete Suite will still work. It runs locally in your browser in the user's preexisting auth context. To reddit, it's not going to look any different than someone manually editing/deleting their posts through a browser, except the rate at which those actions are performed.

It's open source, you can see exactly what it does and how it works.

Thank you! I'm not sure it'll be the same for shreddit as it must be registered as a "script" application on reddit in order to work so I'm guessing it's using API.

That's correct, it is using the API. If it's being registered as an app in reddit for your user, that's shreddit requesting authorization to get OAuth tokens for your user.
