I've gotten a lot less angry with Crucible after I've accepted that there is no victory in it, only defeat, and that I'm not good at it, but it still hasn't become fun for me.
I can see that the meta is Hand Cannons and Shotguns on Hunters and Warlocks, but otherwise it just seems like throwing myself into the game as cannon fodder for others without an ounce of enjoyment.
So, when do other people start having fun in the Crucible? Is it a specific mode? I admit I'm a solo player and don't have groups to play with, so maybe that's it?

While handcannons and shotguns may be the meta, it doesn't mean you can't succeed with other weapon types. I try to use a variety; pulse rifles, scout rifles, and snipers. Even the new sidearms are viable. You just have to find what you're comfortable with--what you do well with--and stick to it. Don't try to use what everyone else is using because it seems to be the most effective. What works for others may not work for you.
