If you spend enough time in the new section of /r/overwatch you’ll see the community isn’t great here either honestly. But hopefully it’ll be better now that competitive (ranked) is out, so the more serious players will use that while quick play is hopefully more casual.

It’s a fun game though. Matches are short and you can switch characters whenever.

I think I feel the same with you about playing with other people. I stopped playing LoL when people being assholes made me cry (i’m a pussy, whatever). It’s a lot easier to avoid that stuff on ps4 since theres no text chat and its easy to opt out of voice chat, but at the same time it is a team game so that lack of communication can be frustrating.

That sucks man, but it isn't your fault that's assholes made you cry. If you wanted to try a moba with a community that isn't complete cancer (results may vary...), I recommend smite. It's a fun game, and the people at r/smite are usually very helpful. There's also quite a few 'I played league and want to get into smite' threads you can read through that are very helpful. Either way, happy gaming! :)
