Rich people don't pay for stupid shit like this, it's how they stay rich.

When you do the math it makes sense that is the cost. None of the pizza places dropped their price when they stopped doing delivery, and the price the private delivery services are doing at least double the pizza place's delivery price.
Most places like a pizza shop are going to split 3 ways between food, staff and other overhead. On a $15 pizza we are talking about $5 split between the cook and the delivery person so lets say $3 is adding into every pizza for delivery costs.
On a $50 purchase you're seeing $10 for delivery from the pizza place and then an additional $20 for the private.
How far away are you??? That is expensive. Normally it’s not that bad. I just went up to 54$ on an order and tax and shipping is only 15$. While it’s not “good”. It’s not bad either.
So I am guessing you either hit a busy period or live drastically far away from the place you ordered.
Few questions:
How far away is the pizza place? Do you live in a remote area? What time of day is it? What are the driving conditions like (snow/rain/other hazards)?
You say you can just pick it up for a quarter of that price. Then go pick it up? Is there anything preventing you? Not saying this is reasonable on DoorDash’s end, but there’s a ton of information we’re missing here. So I don’t understand how people can jump to certain conclusions this quickly.

Ah yes fuck over the guy trying to stay afloat himself by delivering food
“Buy one get one deal!"
That's not a deal, that's a normal sale. Did they actually phrase it like that? "You pay for 1 item, you get 1 item"? What you mean - and what such a wording might mislead you to believe - is "buy one, get one free" (a.k.a. BOGOF)
