You got your answer. Blog comments don't change order per votes. Q/As do.

Hmmmm,
I have posted answers and did not see my response at the end or bottom as it should be. After all, when I hit post, there is insufficient time for any up votes.
Let me see where this answer appears.
At the time of publish it appear #10 with Gita and Susan below although they posted hours ahead and also have not upvotes.

I know the blogs they continue adding at the bottom. With the Q & A section, the more comments you end up on top. If no one has a Upvote, you will be at the top, I think.

Good morning Peter. In the Q & A section, I have no clue. It random, but there must be some purpose to it.

Your blog post comments appear in the order they were received. This doesn't change. I think the Q and A ranks the questions my the number of upvotes.
3,773,109
On a post, the sequence is determined by when you commented, with older posts first. With questions, it's how many upvotes you get.
3,278,108

Blogs are done in order of comments received.
Answers are sorted first by # of thumbs up and second (when that's tied) w/ most recent first.

on a post, it's first come, first appear....
on a Q & A, it's determined by upvotes....

The programming code and algorithms that implement the comment section of the Q&A and post features.
5,375,462
I think it's chronological for comments on posts. For Q and A, not sure - popularity?
4,434,377

Upvotes on Q & A and Blog comments, I think the date/time they are posted.
