On the contrary, it really matters in some contexts, like for retirement purposes. Taxation of retirement income can really impact retirees.
Tax policy can also make a huge difference for whether rebalancing a portfolio is even viable.
Unless you have unusually high W-2 income, expensive or large property, etc most of the differences between states are pretty marginal when you net everything out.
Many of the "low tax" states have a catch, whether it be sales tax on food, school funding, high property taxes, local governance that encourages HOA, etc. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter too much. People complaining about taxes is background radiation.
