After a reload, in the owner the order is the same as on the share recipient. It was not the order how the columns were created though. "Add more" was ticked when creating the three columns in a go.
I also get this strange behavior on my Netxcloud Tables instance. Don't understand why the columns are "moving", and I'm looking for a workaround to reorder them until the issue will be closed.
I didn't found a workaround for now, but there is an existing issue about this problem : https://github.com/nextcloud/tables/issues/607 I hope it will be solve one day because it's very anoying to can't change column's order on the main table view.
That's a strange thing on creation, I did not investigate further. I don't think i can reproduce it always either.
Generally, the order in a table cannot be modified, as you saw in the ticket, use views for that (for so long).
