Please give us the option of not playing with groups that include console players. I do not want to play with someone who is handicapping themselves and their team by playing in the PC pool on controller without the benefit of aim assist.
If this means my queues are 15 minutes, I will GLADLY wait for a game where players aren’t trying to play a sniper with their thumbs.

I feel like this probably exists, but ive also only played 10 games total this year so what would i know
It doesn’t - PC players do not currently have an option to opt out of playing with console.
Console players do have to opt in and be grouped with someone in the PC pool. The stated idea behind this was to allow PC and console friends to play together. I have no objection to that. I object to the fact that I can’t opt out.
And before anyone starts with the PC vs. console stuff, I play games on both, but I don’t play any type of shooter on controller w/o aim assist and I wouldn’t want to inflict controller aim w/o aim assist on any team in any game.
Dear overwatch, please give everyone the option of not playing with OP.
You already have that option - just don’t opt into the PC pool. 
If you have something substantive to add to the discussion, please come back and try again.
Oh I have a PC account too, I just don’t want my crappy PC specs hurting your game.
Play competitive then
they will never be in your games, and it’s rare for them to be in your games in the first place for QP

I wish it was rare. If it were say, one out of every five games, then I probably wouldn’t notice. I’m seeing it every other game or every third game.
As for playing comp - this is the account I use to play with friends, who almost exclusively do QP. I have other accounts I play comp only on.
I’m not saying everyone has to opt out. I would just like the option to do so. People can still play with their console friends. I just don’t want to be in those games.

I don’t even notice a difference in gameplay with cross play. This would just make matchmaking more complicated. Maybe you’re ok with waiting 15 min for a game but most people aren’t.
Gotta love how us console players are seen as dirty low life inferiors to most PC players.
If you don’t group up with a console player yourself, you won’t be matched with other console players, either in a group or not.
Cross platform between PC and console isn’t a thing for competitive I thought… so why would you care? It’s quick play, for fun.
Lucky for you console players don’t exist (in the pc pool)
I’ve counted like 5 since the first week of cross play
I very rarely encounter console players tbh
