Beyond what Blake said, here are two key phrases from the wiki page.

"Also after adding at least one layer you can find button *Choose Filter* in
the JOSM main window (Figure 2).
...
*"Note: if you added not raster but OSM layer the Choose Filters button
will be disabled.*

In practice that means clicking on, say, the MapBox layer, and making sure
that the little green check mark is on the same layer. Only then will the
Choose Filter icon be enabled so that you can add the filters to the
desired layer.

Regards,
Greg
