Also, does the time frame vary according to the oil and filter you buy?

My search function is not working, so I apologize if this is a duplicate question.
For what it’s worth, I just replaced my liquimoly molygen after 21,000 miles. I don’t recommend you wait that long, but my engine was only just maybe kinda sorta showing signs of low oil pressure.
