I just recently switched from a startup offering authorization to AWS Cognito because the startup kept raising their price(s).

Maybe because they know Cognito is horrible? ;)

OTOH, I have never seen DynamoDB prices decreasing.

The introduction of DynamoDB on-demand pricing was a huge price reduction for some workloads with the additional benefit of also reducing the complexity of scaling capacity as well.

On demand pricing dropped our DynamoDB cost by ~20%.

What don't you like about cognito? I've been able to solve every auth problem I've encountered with it.
