My understanding, as a Reading List power user (almost 2k items), is that the list is purely on when you bookmarked them. There may also be a mechanism for "bumping" it up if the article has been updated since you bookmarked it, but I haven't looked at the code to see.

Interesting. For me, it doesn’t sort by the date I bookmarked it. It would be really interesting what the cause is.

I just double-checked it on my Reading List, and it almost looks like a whole slew of Oct/Nov type stuff got reindexed which prompted that "bumping" I mentioned. I'm seeing Nov 2018 then Oct 2018 so it's not by date or select order. But it did update very recently... huh, weird.
