Font looks blurry after translate in Chrome

A suggestion from a related discussion solved the issue for me: https://stackoverflow.com/a/46117022/7375996

Using calc with some offset solved the issue in my case:

transform: translate(calc(-50% + 0.5px), calc(-50% + 0.5px));

html css google-chrome chromium

I've tried different solutions in different, sometimes scary, combinations:

translate3d instead of translateY
zoom:2; transform: scale(0.5); or zoom:0.5; transform: scale(2);
transform: translate(calc(-50% + 0.5px), calc(-50% + 0.5px));
-webkit-filter: blur(0);
perspective: 1000px
scale(1.0, 1.0)
-webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased;

none of them work in july 2019.

The only solution i found for modals, that should be centered - to use a flexbox aligment instead of transform: translate.

.modal__container {  display: flex;  justify-content: center;  align-items: center;  position: fixed;  top: 0;  right: 0;  bottom: 0;  left: 0;  background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);}  .modal {    box-sizing: border-box;    max-width: 80%;    max-height: 80%;    padding: 20px;    overflow-y: auto;    background: #fff;  }

<div class="modal__container">  <div class="modal">    Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
