There were a decent number of couples who met online, before meeting online meant a dating site. There were BBSes, Usenet, and some early discussions sites. I'm sure people could compile a surprisingly large list of ways people met. A few years later, I even met my wife on LiveJournal, before that went weird(er). So while someone certainly could do a documentary on such things, I don't think any specific couple from that era should be holding their breath for it.

A lot of people still seem to meet via Metafilter.

IRC, obviously. Probably MUDs too.

It’s notable for being the first time in human history when people found mates across the globe without leaving their homes.

That definitely deserves a documentary.
