The installation is done from binary, this could be the problem. Not sure.

After you change the app.ini, you have to restart the gitea

I did restart it, several times, but no luck.
The config for attachments is not shown in the web interface either.

After some testing, the attachment limit is working for the "releases" page.
But it is not working for the "Code" page. < different setting?

@T100D You may need the following settings

[repository.upload]
; Max size of each file in megabytes. Defaults to 3MB
FILE_MAX_SIZE = 3
