I think you have heard about Babelfish (https://babelfishpg.org/)
It is a modified version of PostgreSQL, written by Amazon, that provides
a TDS interface to PostgreSQL, so that a program written for Microsoft
SQL Server can connect to it. It works up to a certain extent.
You could use it to migrate data to PostgreSQL, but you'd have to
continue to use Babelfish unless you change your application to speak
the PostgreSQL protocol.

There are other tools to migrate to PostgreSQL, for example
https://github.com/fljdin/mssql_migrator
