Two days ago I thought roots of my umbrella tree were growing out of the drainage hole. Today it's definitely a fungus of some kind. Any thoughts? Should I remove it?

Those kinds of mushrooms are extremely common in pots soil. U dont have to, it does mean your soil is healthy, but if its paired with a plant that doesnt need too much water, it can indicate overwatering or the pot is staying wet too long.

They're called flowerpot parasols if you want to learn more about them
