I have used Mobil 0W-20 in my 2018 for the last two oil changes. I've poured over online threads for all types of Subarus, and found that for the filter it's best to stick to OEM (blue is good, black is better but hard to find). This Fumoto drain plug also makes the process so much easier.

Just change your filter too, it's not that expensive($5).
Our cars take 0W-20. Up to you what company you want to go with for oil. Mobil 1/Royal Purple/Motul/Amsoil to name a few.
If you change the oil and get a new filter, you'll need 5 to 6 quarts. Fill up with 5, then check and see if it's full, otherwise add more.
You can cheat and install a Fumoto oil drain valve...next time you do your oil change it'll be a hell of a lot easier.
I would suggest getting a Fumoto drain valve if you can get your plug out. Then you'll never have to worry about it again!
If you really wanna simplify the process get the one with the short nipple and buy the tube that goes with it. You can run this straight to the container and never have to deal with an oil pan

I just changed the oil in my '16 Crosstrek. This makes it much easier.
