Well . . .
I have just noticed that when using my IE browser, and I 'hit' "All Categories", I am offered the options "Discover", and, "Answer".
When "Discover" is underlined & darker, the questions in the list are *not* in order of when they were asked.
("Discover" is Left of "Answer", right above the Questions, in the Left corner . . . using IE browser.
Using Firefox browser, on the "All Categories" page, the 2 options offered at that spot are called: "Recent" (on the Left), and, "Popular" (on the Right).
The "Recent" list has Questions in order of when they were asked, but, the "Popular" list does not.
For some reason, the two browsers use different words for the same two lists, as well as having them on the opposite sides of each other . . . I know not why!
I know not also which browser you are using, etc. . . but, now suspect that you are looking at the list of "Popular"/"Discover" Questions, instead of the "Recent"/"Answer" list . . . or the equivalents, depending on what the browser you are using call them.
(: I hope that is correct!
However, when I 'hit' "Answer", and it becomes dark & underlined, the list of questions that appears *is* in the order of when they were asked.
The options offered using Firefox are different.
Anyway . . .
Could you be looking at the "Discover" list . . . )whatever that is supposed to mean) . . . ?

I use neither of those browsers. In fact I use several. Because of ease of use I prefer Palemoon. However I followed your suggestion. "Answers" seems to bring up a time sequence back to finding question. Thank you.
