Better way of using debounce in server script?

Help and Feedback Code Review
#1

Hi, I’ve been wondering the best way to handle debounces on server scripts. I tested if wait() affected everyone on a server, and as I expected, it did. I read in another post that wasn’t related to my situation to use an array debounce that still uses wait, so I modified to use the player instance and os.time(). Does anyone know how the more popular games go about it or best practice? thank you for any feedback. Also, I ahve no clue how to get a rbxl file, so Ill just post the code below.

DataStore = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.DataManager)

Players = game:GetService('Players')

local part = script.Parent
local debouceList = {}

...

function Debouce(touchedPart)
	local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(touchedPart.Parent)
	
	if player then
		local entry = debouceList[player]
		local currentTime = os.time()
		
		if entry then
			if currentTime - entry >= 1 then
				debouceList[player] = currentTime
				Work(player)
			end
		else
			debouceList[player] = currentTime
			Work(player)
		end
	end
end

part.Touched:Connect(Debouce)

Kinda confused on what you mean, but this would be my implementation of it

local Players = game:GetService("Players");

local debounceList = {};
local debounceTime = 2;

part.Touched:Connect(function(touchedPart)
    local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(touchedPart.Parent)
    
    if player and not debounceList[player] then -- check if it's a player and that they aren't in debounce
        debounceList[player] = true; -- create the debounce
        pcall(function() -- safe calling just in case
            Work(player);
        end)
        wait(debounceTime); -- wait delay
        debounceList[player] = false; -- no more debounce
    end
end

Pretty simple, no need to use os.time() which can get confusing.

I meant that having a wait() in a server script yields the script for everyone, unlike local scripts.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local debounceList = {}
local debounceTime = 2

part.Touched:Connect(function(touchedPart)
    local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(touchedPart.Parent)

    if player and not debounceList[player] then -- check if it's a player and that they aren't in debounce
        debounceList[player] = true -- create the debounce

        pcall(function() -- safe calling just in case
            Work(player)
        end)

        task.delay(debounceTime, function()
            debounceList[player] = false -- no more debounce
        end)
    end
end

create a new thread then

EDIT: I used task.delay instead

In certain instances yes, however since we are using part.Touched it spawns a new function each time
