You need to create a new filter that will contain worklogAuthor and worklogComment.

worklogComment is harder to fetch for current assignee. As a result, it would look something like this:

assignee = currentUser() AND worklogAuthor = currentUser() AND worklogComment IS NOT EMPTY

You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.
