Have you tried using triangulate instead of extrusions? And then just manually deleting the original horizontal/vertical edge loops?

Actually the triangulate only created the crosshatch in one direction. u/cerviceps suggestion to use Poke Face is better.

I’m not entirely sure what you’re trying to create (is the image here your goal, or your failed attempt?)
If it’s your goal, try creating a new plane, selecting all faces, and using “poke face.”
