The vast majority of Chrome users will continue to use Chrome, as the vast majority of internet users do not use adblock software.

im not sure about it, they wouldn't try to ban ublock if it was a minority

Random article I found said about 26% of people in the US use adblocking services. Working on the assumption that's reasonably accurate, that's a pretty big chunk of ad revenue.

What platforms does chrome come as default on? I know it's on google products like pixel, but mac and pcs still have safari and edge, right? What kind of people know enough to get a non-default browser and not enough to get adblock?

Chrome is standard on pretty much all Android phones, and Edge is just Chromium with a skin so it will get this too
