All fonts over Chrome turns blurry and thin

Reported by ido.mon...@gmail.com, Oct 1 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3497.100 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Look at the text anywhere in Chrome 69 (including websites).

What is the expected behavior?
Font should be clear and readable.

What went wrong?
The fonts are not clear and barely readable.
Especially in English text and when the font is smaller then 10-12pt (approximately, as you can see in the attached image) 

Did this work before? Yes On macOS 10.13.6 and Chrome 68

Chrome version: 69.0.3497.100  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.14.0
Flash Version:

Can you please open a new report with the crash and attach the apple crash log there?

Thanks.

Comment 5 by ido.mon...@gmail.com, Oct 1 

I tried delete and re-install it and now it working.
The fonts are better at some places, but still not 100% readable, it's about 60% better then Chrome 69.

ido.monzon@: Can you please add some links to this report, where it still looks broken?

+lgrey@ to decide if this is a dupe of  issue 858861 . Thanks.

Comment 7 by ido.mon...@gmail.com, Oct 1 

It doesn't look broken, it looking like the first image in  issue 858861 , not the clearest font, but on my mac (Chrome 69) it's looking much worst as you can see in my attached image.

Re c#6, probably but I'm not totally sure. ido.monzon@ can you please upload a screenshot of Canary with the specific text you're having issues with circled? (coincidentally, the new Mojave screenshot tools are great at this)

Comment 10 by ido.mon...@gmail.com, Oct 1 

There is a difference between the versions, but I remember it was even more smooth in Chrome 68 on macOS 10.13.6.
Screenshot is attached.

Yes, I also noticed a difference in Chrome UI font between Mojave and High Sierra (mention in https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=858861#c21). 

The fix from https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=858861#c30 makes it a little bit better, but the font still looks "washed out" compared with High Sierra.

Comment 12 by lgrey@chromium.org, Oct 1 

Re c#11 is there something specific you wanted to call out? Otherwise, it looks like  Issue 858861  to me.

Comment 13 by meh...@chromium.org, Oct 1 

No sorry, nothing specific - only wanted to confirm c#10. Please feel free to merge this report into  issue 858861 . Thank you :)
