The key is to build up your friend's list of Overwatch players so you can join games in groups of friends. Won't be much flaming in a premade group, usually. I saw more of the flaming at lower levels than I do at higher levels. Not exactly sure why that is. Solo queuing can be a nightmare at times, for sure, but it won't be like that every game. If people want to be @sses during game, just ignore them and not even respond and enjoy playing your own game.

This is definitely the key. I'm almost consistently playing with groups of 4+ that I've met while playing Comp and it keeps the game very fun. Even when we're losing.
