I'm seeing plenty of examples of sense 2 on Twitter. I suspect that "junkie" is the more common meaning outside of social media.
Also, as the "junk" sense is technically wasei, I don't think it can come ahead of the "junkie" senses. I wouldn't object to splitting it off into a separate wasei-tagged entry.

I think we need to make up our mind on sense order and formulate a clear policy on it. I think we should heavily prioritize actual usage, with some exceptions, but I don't think "the kokugos lead with x" should be one of those when that usage is uncommon.

Sankoku puts them in one entry. I think it's OK.
I don't think the "junk" sense should lead. None of my refs except sankoku have it. Most of the "word explainer" sites either don't mention it or put it at the end.
