def formularz(request):
form = DodajForm(request.POST)   
if form.is_valid():
    ogloszenie = form.save(commit=False)
    ogloszenie.user = request.user 
    ogloszenie.save()
    return redirect('atrakcje:after') 
else:
    ogloszenie = DodajForm()
context = {
            'form': form,}
return render(request, 'formularz.html', context)

Rewrite the form to exclude the user field:

class DodajForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Dodaj
        exclude = ['user']

In the view, you better alter the instance, and let the form do the save logic, since a ModelForm can also save many-to-many fields:

def formularz(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = DodajForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
        if form.is_valid():
            form.instance.user = request.user
            form.save()
            return redirect('atrakcje:after') 
    else:
        ogloszenie = DodajForm()
    context = {'form': form}
    return render(request, 'formularz.html', context)
