If mushrooms are closer to animals than plants, are they vegan?

Assuming this is serious (I'm terrible at detecting sarcasm) then no. Mushrooms don't have a brain or anything that would allow them to experience sentience.

Yeah, it was a serious question. I've heard that they've apparently displayed some sentient behaviours, but I'm not very knowledgeable on this topic.

Mushrooms iirc are basically the "fruit" part of mycelium, eating a mushroom is about the equivalent of eating an apple
