Android - how to delay in Android/Kotlin

There are subtle points in doing this. Do you use a separate thread? Do you want your app to be unresponsible during the delay interval? This is the method most encouraged: 
Handler().postDelayed({
    TODO("Do something")
    }, 2000)
Note that "better" here has to do with "in the context of Android".
