Hey guys, I want to delay sendTwitterVideo without blocking bot.sendVideo?

Yeah, this blocks sendVideo function itself, doesn't it? I am calling sendVideo inside for of loop, and I need to keep uploading to twitter with 1 minute intervals and to telegram without any delay

what you probably want here is const twitterQueue = []; setInterval(() => { const video = twitterQueue.shift(); if (video) { sendTwitterVideo(..); } }, 60 * 1000); const sendVideo = async (..) => { // .. twitterQueue.push(..); };
