We've been a bit remiss this last week or so about bringing in the Dark & Light "Basics" videos that Snail has sent out lately. Making up for lost time, you'll find a trio of great stuff in the form of Home Management, Taming the Wild and Crafty Crafting.

Although I'll agree with not trusting Snail Games, Snail isn't involved in Ark's development. Now its definitely a possible that Snail bought a large portion of their assets from Ark since they bought probably 90% of the game's assets and even maybe hired some of the devs from Ark, but you can't really pin on the other.
The only issues I've seen or experienced are occasional crashing, some lag when in or near a starting city, and things that, frankly, should be expected in an early access game.
Let me emphasize that bit: Early Access Game. Those words exist for a reason. Expecting an Early Access game to not have bugs is like expecting water to not be wet, and complaining that it is.
I've been playing a little bit of Ark - which I came to after checking out DnL and rather enjoying it. Ironically, I find that DnL runs far better on my system in its current stage than Ark does. That's kinda weird to me, but there you go. Ark is interesting, but I find it certain aspects of it (nothing to do with performance) to be kinda annoying. The constant pooping noises gets old fast, for example.
I find it weird how outraged people are acting over bugs in an early access game, when there are AAA games from well-known, award winning developers that are notorious for their bugs upon release... Bethesda, anyone? Yet people take those bugs in stride, deal with them, create community patches for them, and go on to enjoy the games nonetheless. Bugs in an early access game, though? Outrage! Unacceptable!! Stay away!! Come on, people.
