I run arch, and the google-chrome-stable package appears to have sorted out it's hdpi scaling issues.

I could be wrong though, a while back I did a lot of tweaks to beat the concept of hdpi and variable screen resolutions into my computer, so I don't exactly have a "clean" setup, and it could be something else, but the fonts look crisp on both the low res and high res screens.

I can't say whether this is anything to do with whether it's a build with/without ozone, but it appears to work now (sorry don't know much more than that!)

I'd just like to correct my post above, it seems that chrome was running under XWayland, I think I'd just found an incantation of settings that made it look alright on both my high res/low res screens.
There is an xwayland[0] patch out there to fix this properly. Could it be that you're using something like this[1]?
