Take a look at the docs for that operator here.

You can use the with field to provide a callback when the timeout fires. That callback does not necessarily need to throw an error. Instead it could fire off a side effect that triggers a toast message, for example.

mySlowObservable$.pipe( timeout({ each: 5000, with: () => { trigger a toast message here }, }) )
