So facebook, which needs us to spend as much time on the website as possible to maintain advertising revenue, has the perverse incentive of keeping everyone single. So this could be the answer to the Fermi Paradox

You seem to be mis-interpreting.. or inferring data that is not there. All this is showing is that prior to being in a relationship there is a lot of online activity between two people, and less after being in a relationship. Presumably because prior to being in a relationship, you are spending more time communicating at a distance, and when in a relationship you tend to spend more of your time physically together rather than communicating online. This data says nothing about how much these people are using the website in general.
