I generally wipe for good measure, but it is indeed somewhat futile because you're inevitably going to get a few drips leaking out afterwards because gravity is a thing and it's expected that a few bits are going to linger in the urethra once there's no pressure behind it. For circumcised guys and uncircumcised ones that retract the foreskin to pee (my personal preference, since otherwise the stream can be a bit unpredictable), it's very different from women peeing, since there's nothing in the way to get covered in pee and the only thing wiping does is grab the last few drops that have enough surface tension to hold on. There's rarely enough residue to make it really necessary to clean up.

Of course, wiping isn't really an option at urinals, but stalls are a thing.
