I created a public link for a group of testers but the link shows: "This beta isn't accepting any new testers right now."
The build has been approved and I set the limit to 10 testers.
Why is the public link not accepting new beta testers?

Well, after writing this, I decided to check the build state and I noticed that the build was missing a step:
After notifying the testers, the link now accepts new testers. The link shows: "To join the Mealcard beta, tap the link on your iPhone or iPad after you install TestFlight."

it's also not a bad idea to look at the limitation set for the number of testers – Amin Dannak Mar 12 '23 at 12:33

If, like I found, you're finding clicking "Notify Testers" still doesn't work as outlined in Ricardo's post, give it 10 minutes to propagate across Apple's networks.

16omg this is so unclear. I shared enabled link manually and had to use stackoverflow to find this out.... apple sucks in clarity and procedures a lot! – Michał Króliczek Apr 25 '19 at 07:07

In my case, I still see the yellow clock symbol next to "Approved" after 30 minutes. However, refreshing the public link in my browser shows it as live. Do click "Notify Testers", do wait 10-30 minutes, but don't trust the yellow clock! – Paul Masri-Stone Feb 21 '23 at 10:46

If it says that, it may mean that the app you are trying to install dont want anymore poeple 'testing' their app. or it could mean the link has expired
