Yes, after rebooting it takes 25 hours to gain the HSDir flag.
At time of writing, your uptime is just over 17 hours.

This is from the dir spec:


 "HSDir" -- A router is a v2 hidden service directory if it stores and
   serves v2 hidden service descriptors, and the authority believes that it's
   been up for at least 25 hours (or the current value of
   MinUptimeHidServDirectoryV2).

   Directory server administrators may label some relays or IPs as
   blacklisted, and elect not to include them in their network-status lists.
