Don't fall for the Sombra propaganda
Every month someone that is likely a Sombra main comes here saying they are actually a support main, another dps main, whatever and tell people how she is weak (a lie) and won't hurt you so "good players" will actually ban X, Y or Z, but you are not lesser, a noob or a thrower just because you want to have peace strive for a fair match, you are thinking about your enjoyment of the game and no one have the right to dictate how you should do it.
You gotta be smart, the fact that a youtuber top100 said she's a noob ban or the fact that people don't talk about her so much anymore is not linked to the reality of hiw shitty your gane will feel with that invisible threat running around.
People saying 'she's cute and funny, omg, haha ♡' will not make you less miserable when she dives your backline.
I used to ban her in Bronze, I ban her in mid Diamond still if I think they might use her on the other side and my friends ban her in GM very often depending on the backline or tank, so no, you are not lesser, not a noob or a casual just because you want to have peace and a fair match, you are thinking about your enjoyment of the game and no one should dictate how you to do so.
History proved over and over again that she doesn't need a balance rework because the problem is not her numbers, its invisibility and a hacker has little to nothing to do with being physically invisible, she's not a ghost or a spectre so make her hack deployables, make her use hack to whatever, make her meta even, but take invisibility away.
The devs devs once decided to go for the most broken concept imaginable and put an INVISIBLE hero in a shooter where a fraction of a second will dictate a match outcome so I expect the same strenght to say "it was a mistake, lets take the right call here and be better than this, she stays but invisibility doesn't beling in our game".
