Currently, the content of (the English version of) [[MediaWiki:abusefilter-edit-lastmod-text]] is "$1 by $2".
I suggest changing this to something like
[[Special:AbuseFilter/history/<filterId>/diff/prev/<changeId>|$1]] by $2
so that the user can go directly to the latest change in the filter by following this link.

Should I just add it to the AbuseFilter.i18n.php ? or write separate code for it to work like https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/87701/ ?
Change 265467 had a related patch set uploaded (by IoannisKydonis):
Add link to abusefilter-edit-lastmod-text
If anything, it should link to the latest version, not a diff of the latest version and the one before. There is nothing in the link text that implies it should be a diff, and the text that comes before it "Filter last modified" also does not imply a diff.
Something like [[[[Special:AbuseFilter/filterid|$1]] by $2 would be acceptable, only because if you are looking at an older version (e.g. if you are in Special:AbuseFilter/history/X/item/Y) you can go to the latest version with just one click.
Apparently, this message is used in multiple places: in the fifth column on Special:AbuseFilter and below filter notes when editing a filter. Still, I believe this change is ok for either place (except for the list of global filters when displayed remotely).
