What is the reason for this testnet?
I want to have a real node, doing real things. Why do i need this testnet?

And of course the last question, how to switch to main blockchain?

Testnet is the alternative blockchain which replicates the protocol rules of Bitcoin with certain enabled features for testing, ie Segwit was activated on that first iirc. It's great for a group of users to be able to test things without risking actual Bitcoins. Regtest does the work as well but it's limited to the user only.

Just remove that line and you'll be on the mainnet.

I dunno, bitcoin.conf is empty by default so you might have set it unintentionally.
Also, depending on your use-case, you might not be needing the other entries that you've added to the config file.

BTW, aside from deletion, commenting the line will disable it just like what you did in rpcuser and rpcpassword.

It seems they're sort of blindly copy-pasting stuff from "guides" that they've found... like they said they were following this: https://gist.github.com/bretton/1a72e9fea94405be449edbd379a1ce57

Which is specifically "This guide is specific to getting LND and bitcoind running on ubuntu 16.04 LTS for testnet."

@crystal-love, are you actually trying to get a lightning node setup as well? or do you just want a Bitcoin Core node?

I would like to setup lightning node.
There are many tutorials, but non of them worked well. So i was using like 3 or 4 tutorials at the same time, trying to put everything together.
Bitcoin Core node - easy. But for lightning i did not found clear and working tutorial.

If you know some, i would be thankful
