Jira JQL Filter: exclude issues with certain labels, but include issues without labels

Issue:

If you filter your issues by labels and you exclude a certain label, e.g. by using `AND labels !=yourlabel`, for some reason Jira will also exclude all issues that have no label at all.

Solution:

Expand your JQL filter logic as shown in the snippet. If you have no further filter logic before the label filter, drop the `AND` operator. You will now get all issues that have other labels than `yourlabel`, including issues without any labels.
