Use the filter and sort on "recently added". Selecting this twice will reverse the order.

What if I want to order the tracks manually?
I've been pressing the upper right lines/play button that makes the songs sortable, but I've used that mode to remove songs from the playlist and it didn't work, it moves them to the bottom of my active listening and doesn't change the actual playlist.

When I go to the 3 dots to the right of each song, I can remove a track permanently it seems, but no way to sort.

Does sorting my personal listening change the order permanently, or do I have to delete every song and readd it all in the order I want?

Ah, there's no way to manually sort songs on android I'm afraid. All you can do is to create a new playlist then add a track at a time to this in the order you want.
