The Multimedia group should still exist in 41:
https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/blob/main/f/comps-f41.xml.in#_4031-4054

That said, I don't see it represented in "dnf group list --hidden", so
something is wrong.

Regardless, RPM Fusion is not required for most common online and
offline multimedia. The main notable exclusions are HEVC, AC-4, VVC,
and similarly encumbered codecs. None of those are in common use
(except with Blu-Rays, but that's a separate problem anyway).
