Do I really have to use secure erase (sopuli.xyz)

I am giving away a shitty 128GB SSD, which was used with LUKS 2 for most of it's lifetime. As far as I know, it's good practice to secure-erase it, but I'm too lazy to reinstall the OS on it (I already did it once). Is it really needed?

Should have thought of that before reinstalling the OS. Thanks, will remember for later.
