Backdrop-filter is... fine. Using masks, animations, and backdrop filter, and gradients, especially for fine details like edges, are just asking for trouble.

Browsers are incredibly complicated, and rendering engines have lots of edge cases, broken features, slight incompatibility issues some of which vary by hardware/os/enabled-flags.

IME, this would definitely not be worth it.
