I would like to write a filter that will return any issues that have comments. The only option in JQL I've seen related to comments is the Tilde (~) which I believe indicates "contains." However, I want to find all issues with comments, not just those, and I don't know how I can do that with ~ because I can't know what the comments might contain. I tried " ", but Jira didn't like the empty string operator.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I came up with the following workaround - add the following as a part of your query:
(comment ~ "anything*" OR comment !~ "anything*")
You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.

First of all, thanks for this! I know this is an old topic, but I couldn't find the answer to this anywhere else: Is there a way to get the inverse result (issues without comments) in a similar fashion (without app or plugin)? Thanks again.
Edit: For those who come after me, I did manage to find the solution here: How to setup a filter that shows tickets with no responses.

Hi Michael,
JQL Search Extensions adds a bunch of keywords for comments. After installing the plugin you can then use the following JQL:
commentsCount >
0

Hello,
There are already some answers which might be interesting for you:
Look for example at Jira Toolkit Plugin and create custom field 'Number of comments'.

Hello,
you could write such a filter if you have Adaptivist Scriptrunner installed. This plugin has "hasComments" JQL function. You can read more here about this function:
