Apple says "Hello" to passers-by and laptop users through the new screensaver available in the macOS Big Sur 11.3 update. It takes inspiration from the Spring Loaded event. The colorful and cursive design of the text gives the new vibe sent out by Apple, being a hip and colorful company with their recent releases.
The Cupertino giant is saying "hello" and has invited everyone to witness the new phase and look of Apple from Spring Loaded, which now has taken a step forward from minimalist and simple, to pop and bright colors. While the branding of the company has not exactly changed or there were no announcements regarding it, their list of devices shows what is new within the company.
Initially, only the iPhones and iPads were given a refreshing new color scheme with a pastel palette for its devices but has now managed to include those colors to the iMac, even on its top-spec version. Initially, the Pro versions of the iPhone and iPad only have the basic silver, black, and gray colors, but the other units offer a more robust color choice for them.

This could be toggled via the System Preferences tab to check for "Software Updates" or by accessing the Apple Logo on the top left corner to access "About This Mac."
