Previous and next article links will use the order configured in the active menu item

Did you check the menu active for your article view ?

E.g. if you have the order in menu being "Use global (Most recent first)"
then what you are getting sound expected ?

Yes, there is a global option. In most cases, the blog items display as "most recent first", but it is logically to display next/prev more user-friendly.
Next should go to newer item, previous should go to oldest item. Isn't it logical?

Next should go to newer item, previous should go to oldest item. Isn't it logical?

No, That would not respect the configured ordering, so it would be bogus behaviour

you can go simply to configuration and reverse the ordering to have most old first, if that is what you want / need

About this particular issue
we neither have a bug nor bad UX,

there could other improvements to do in regards to Page Navigation plugin , but this is not one of them

Think of numbered pagination (1, 2, 3, etc. with previous/next arrows).
Next typically takes you to a page with older items. In this context, the
page navigation links make sense.

Oh, I have to note I meant full article page with next/prev buttons, so I did not mean blog category layout with pagination and next/prev buttons.

Category view and (Content) page navigation plugin (shown in article view) are using the same ordering

• both are getting the ordering from currently active category menu item

[EDIT]
if they were using different ordering it would be great confusion for the users

@Sulpher

i think it is now clear how this works, right ?
