Answer
Assuming the requirement is to remove all the square brackets and finding text between double quotes as individual string. Below Code might help
JavaScript
String[] data = Stream.of(
input.replaceAll("\[", "")//replace all [
.replaceAll("\]","")//replace all ]
.replaceAll("",","")// replace the comma between strings,
.split("""))//now split the string based on double quotes
.filter(str ->str.trim().length() > 1)//filtering out the string which contains only whitespace
.toArray(String[]::new);//collecting the data in an array
//data[0] = My, fancy, text
//data[1] = My, other, value
