I'm wondering how you would say that because it sounds really weird to me:

Would you say "stuff by me/of me/of mine"?

For example if you posted things on Instagram and would say something like "official stuff by/of me" cause I saw someone who used "official stuff of me" as his description on Instagram and that sounds so wrong to me still. So what would you say?

You would say "my stuff." It does sound wrong to say "official stuff of me"; it's probably intended to be humorous. In normal usage, you would say "my official stuff."
