You need to use flex property to center align anchor tag.

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto Flex:opsz,[email protected],100;8..144,300&family=Roboto Mono&family=Roboto:wght@100;400&display=swap');

*{
    background-color: rgb(26, 26, 26);
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}
body{
      display: flex;
      justify-content: center;
      align-items: center;
      height:100vh;
 }
a{
     display: flex;
     justify-content: center;
     align-items: center;
     width:200px;
    border: 1px solid rgb(255, 90, 90);
    color: rgb(255, 124, 124);
    background-color: rgb(255, 85, 85, 0.5);
    text-decoration: none;
    border-radius: 5px;

You can use flexbox or grid layout on the parent of the element you need to center vertically.

parent{
   display: grid;
   place-items: center;
}

parent{
   display: flex;
   flex-direction: column;
   justify-content: center;
}
