How to implement multiple parallel timers?

Question

Python

I want to implement waiting for a response in a telegram bot for 5 seconds, but given that there can be a lot of waiting at the same time, then just going into a loop and waiting is not an option. Tell me how to do it so that it does not take up a lot of resources.

Answer 1

If the bot is asynchronous, then many parallel waits will not be a problem.
