People keep making posts about updating .conf files with a bunch of addresses. I have not done that, but I'm receiving my onions ok...what does that file do?
Do I need it to make the staking work or something?
That is only if you have syncing error or you want to do solo mining. so if your wallet is working without config then no worry. keep as it is. You to add nodes address to config file only if you have issue with wallet update or syncing
