I've long regarded it as a red flag, since the first people I encountered using it were alt-right dipshits. Subsequently it seems to have been adopted wholesale, and I get the impression that most people don't see it as politically charged.
My man, that's so not funky of you! If you skedaddle into this far out place called internet, you have to expect to come across new terms that are slammin and radical to some people. Instead of giving them hairy eyeballs and going "No can do", how about you say "Word, brother"? Every generation invents its own gnarly slang and that's pretty fly, actually. Like, what makes your slang groovy and theirs bogus?
Groovy is definitely a word we should all use more.
Go to bed already grandpa. Stop hating on new words so much.
