It seems that this attribute is converted to a Python object (a list), is it xarray that does this or the binding of netcdf4 ? 

If it's xarray, wouldn't it be better to just not parse it ? ","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1303371718

After fixing the `units` attribute to some reasonable value you can call `ds = xr.decode_cf(ds)`.

Thank you, i'll do this. One could just loop over variables attributes and replace `[]` by an empty string in this particular case","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1303371718
