That’s totally not it for me. It looks fake, but for me it was when this shit starts. A few percent got together in 1980 / early 80S?! Now I vaguely remember the 80s and the “internet” from then. I can’t imagine any got together from “online dating” then or the internet overall. Do you have a concept of what “internet” was then?
I mean that would’ve been the time of BBSes and email so probably a few people met partners online via shared interests and later met up in Meatspace. BBSes particularly had a tendency towards local connections since phone calls were expensive outside of the local exchange (area code)
