I had to update fontconfig-ubuntu to default fontconfig and get freetype 2.95+ version. Then I've changed /etc/profile.d/freetype.sh to
export FREETYPE_PROPERTIES="truetype:interpreter-version=35"
This way I got old font rendering in all apps excluding chromium.

(new rendering, old rendering)
Look at the "T" letter. On the first pic(new) it's fat 2pixel, and on the first one(old) it's 1pixel crispy happiness.
I've tried a lot of options, but I cannot make chromium render fonts as before.
My fontconfig:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<match target="font">
<edit name="hinting" mode="assign">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit name="hintstyle" mode="assign">
<const>hintfull</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="pattern">
<edit mode="append" name="lcdfilter">
<const>lcddefault</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="pattern">
<edit name="rgba" mode="append"><const>rgb</const></edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit name="antialias" mode="assign">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit name="embeddedbitmap" mode="assign">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
UPD. As I can see it's an upstream chromium bug: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=216988

Ok, I took patch from this thread and compiled the latest freetype2 with help of abs.
This fixed my issue for now. I hope upstream could fix this soon, so I don't need to recompile this every time.
