Short description of error
Node Wrangler: No Viewer Node in Shader Editor
In Geometry Node Editor, it works just fine. There, I also see the node under Add -> Output -> Viewer.
Is it a bug? Could not find anything on the web that it has been removed?

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
With Node Wranger enabled, try to preview a node output in the shading editor with a Viewer Node (Should be Ctrl+Shift+select, while Alt+Shift+select should route to the material output node)

Hi, there has never been an actual Viewer node for the Shader Editor. Node Wrangler used to add a temporary Emission node to act as viewer, and connect that to the Output node, but it was simplified in Blender 3.3 because sockets can now be plugged directly into the Output.

Using Node Wrangler, Ctrl+Shift+LMB should do that for you.
