The answer is to join a guild. Guilds can set home servers that allow you to swap freely between up to 3 channels.

An easy way for horses is to reduce the spawn time to 5min while the pve side is kinda annoying to wait 5 min the spot being taken must be Edania spots so 30s waiting time per server switch should be enough to not abuse no cooldown

Oh, yes! Let's remove the server swap cooldown time so there are never any horses on any server anywhere. Seriously, these horse hoarders are getting out of control at Port Epheria. How about they remove the server swap cooldown and implement a 5-min cooldown between each horse taming? Now THAT sounds like a great idea.
