It is possible to set a new filter as the default. If you check the “is available for everyone” box, the filter will be visible to all users. If you don’t check this box, the filter will be saved as a personal filter and will only be available to the user who created it.

The user filter shows all users assigned to tasks on this board. You can click on a user to apply this filter and display all of their tasks.
