I have clipless pedals on all my bikes, including a hybrid and MTB. So, feel free to get them. That said, I'm not really sure how they'll help with a leg length discrepancy in and of themselves. You can, however, use shims either on the pedals, under your cleats or in the shoes. I would recommend seeing a reputable bike fitter to help you with that
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
