Android Question Create A Folder In Internal Storage - Not DirInternal

[MODERN TALKING]

Before, this used to work, but not any more:

Google seems intent on dumbing down Android to the point of uselessnes to me. I think of my devices as little computers and I want a proper file system on them, not the limited tortuous things that Google offers and that I don't understand, ContentChooser, FileProvider, ... o_O I'm getting old...
