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?

That’s quite right, which is why nwipe (the core tool of ShredOS) has a different mode for SSD vs HDD.
Cool while others informed me I don’t have to do it, I will remember for future uses.
