I had my RSR on Feb. 25 on my dominant side. All I can suggest is to try using you weakest hand as much as possible. It is truly awkward but at the end of 6 weeks it feels easier. I did not use bidet or raised seat. Be positive.

A bidet would be great if a person has the funds and room for plumbing changes, but not everyone does. I don't think a removable raised seat would help as much for shoulder surgery as it would for hip and knee surgeries. But it's possible that having less bend in your knees might help your arm drop back a little farther for a better reach. Wiping is going to be slow and awkward for a while, no question. Every time I felt sorry for myself with my temporary TSR limitations, I had to remind myself that there are people with amputations or birth defects that find creative ways to live with one arm. I sure wish one of them would write a book with a few good hints!

I had my surgery in 2023 and found this site to be very helpful. There is also a physical therapist on YouTube with lots of advice about dressing ,sleeping,using the bathroom,etc. Just search for reverse total shoulder replacement recovery or postop. It turns out,everything is not as bad as it seems.
